Not that I can find anywhere, while officers are sometimes put in charge of all the troops in a particular theater, no mater what country they are from, an example would be, Norman Schwarzkopf, Jr., who was put in charge of the coalition forces during the first Iraq War. NCO's, Non Commissioned Officers, are only put in charge of the troops per the orders of their commander.

Highest ranks in the US Armed services, no particular order:

US Air Force: Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force

US Coast Guard: Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard

US Army: Sergeant Major of the Army

US Marines: Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps

US Navy: Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy.

How do you address a master gunnery sergeant?

Verbal conversations are nearly always General, Colonel, or Lieutenant. Written communications almost always should be Major General, Lieutenant Colonel or 1st Lieutenant.AnswerIn the British Armed Forces, you never address an officer by rank alone.

Who is the sergeant responsible to?

There are several ranks of sergeants. Buck sergeants (three chevrons) and staff sergeants (three chevrons with one rocker) led squads, usually of about twelve men. A platoon had four squads. There was a platoon sergeant (three chevrons, two rockers), the top enlisted man in a platoon. The platoon commander was supposed to be an officer, a second lieutenant or a first lieutenant. Platoon leaders got killed a lot. Platoon leader was the single most lethal job of the war. When the lieutenant went down the platoon sergeant took over, until a new lieutenant was assigned. So, squad leaders reported to either the platoon sergeant or the platoon commander, and the platoon sergeant reported to the platoon commander, unless he had become the platoon commander. If the platoon sergeant was leading the platoon he met with the captain or the first lieutenant commanding the company, with the other platoon commanders, when officers were called to company HQ to discuss plans or receive orders.


What is the plural form of Sergeant Major?

With compound nouns the head noun usually gets the plural form. So:two governors generaltwo passersbytwo sons-in-lawtwo courts martialSome Army ranks are slightly confusing as the important noun is at the rear, in this case the important noun is General, as in Brigadier-General, Major-General, and Lieutenant-General. They are all Generals. The preceding noun merely denoting whether they are 1-, 2-, or 3-star Generals.Therefore the plural of Major-General is Major-Generals.The same rule applies to other ranks (plural of Lieutenant-Colonel is Lieutenant-Colonels and not Lieutenants-Colonel and the plural of Sergeant-Major is Sergeant-Majors and not Sergeants-Major).Another answer:The plural of Sergeant Major is in fact Sergeants Major. The noun major modifies sergeant. The same rule applies to Sergeants First Class and Staff Sergeants. Lieutenant Colonels are junior colonels.
